	 	6.	Prepayment. 

 Without implying any limitation on the

	 	10.	Remedies. 

 Upon the occurrence of an Event of

the Lender shall have all of the rights, powers, and remedies available under the terms of this Note, any of the other Financing Documents and all applicable laws. The Borrowers and all endorsers, guarantors, and other parties who may now or in the
future be primarily or secondarily liable for the payment of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note hereby severally waive presentment, protest and demand, notice of protest, notice of demand and of dishonor and non-payment of this Note and

	 	11.	Expenses.

provided for in this Note or any of the other Financing Documents or now or hereafter existing under any applicable law, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Lender of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not
preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Lender of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies. No failure or delay by the Lender to insist upon the strict performance of any term, condition, covenant, or agreement of this Note or
any of the other Financing Documents, or to exercise any right, power, or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, shall constitute a waiver of any such term, condition, covenant, or agreement or of any such breach, or preclude the Lender from
exercising any such right, power, or remedy at a later time or times. By accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under the terms of this Note, the Lender shall not be deemed to waive the right either to require prompt payment when
due of all other amounts payable under the terms of this Note or to declare an Event of Default for the failure to effect such prompt payment of any such other amount. No course of dealing or conduct shall be effective to amend, modify, waive,
release, or change any provisions of this Note.

 In the event any provision of
this Note (or any part of any provision) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision (or remaining part
of the affected provision) of this Note; but this Note shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision (or part thereof) had not been contained in this Note, but only to the extent it is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable.

  

	 	15.	Captions. 

 The captions herein set forth are for
convenience only and shall not be deemed to define, limit, or describe the scope or intent of this Note. 
  

	 	16.	Applicable Law.

agree that this Note shall be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, even though for the convenience and at the request of the Borrowers, this Note may be executed elsewhere. 
  

	 	17.	Consent to Jurisdiction. 

 Each Borrower irrevocably
submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of Maryland over any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Note or any of the other Financing Documents. Each Borrower irrevocably waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that such Borrower may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in
any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Final judgment in any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon each Borrower and may be enforced in any court in which any Borrower is
subject to jurisdiction by a suit upon such judgment, provided that service of process is effected upon the Borrower as provided in this Note or as otherwise permitted by applicable law. 
  

	 	18.	Service of Process.

to process being served in any suit, action, or proceeding instituted in connection with this Note by (a) the mailing of a copy thereof by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Borrowers and (b) serving a copy
thereof upon the registered agent for TVI as set forth in the records of the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation, the agent hereby designated and appointed by each of the Borrowers as each Borrower’s agent for service of

to be valid personal service upon the Borrower. Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of the Lender to serve process in any manner otherwise permitted by law or limit the right of the Lender otherwise to bring proceedings against any
Borrower in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions.

	 	19.	No Novation. 

 This Note amends and restates, is
intended as a replacement of, and is in substitution for, that certain Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note dated as of February 22, 2008 (the “Original Note”) from the Borrowers, as maker, payable to the order of the Lender,
but is not intended as a novation of the Original Note or any of the Obligations evidenced by the Original Note. All references in the Financing Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents to the Revolving Credit Note shall mean the Original
Note, as amended and restated in accordance with the provisions of this Note. 
  

	 	20.	Confessed Judgment. 

 UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN
EVENT OF DEFAULT, EACH BORROWER HEREBY AUTHORIZES ANY ATTORNEY DESIGNATED BY THE LENDER OR ANY CLERK OF ANY COURT OF RECORD TO APPEAR FOR SUCH BORROWER IN ANY COURT OF RECORD AND CONFESS JUDGMENT WITHOUT PRIOR HEARING AGAINST THE BORROWER IN FAVOR
OF THE LENDER FOR AND IN THE AMOUNT OF THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL SUM, ALL INTEREST ACCRUED AND UNPAID THEREON, ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE BY THE BORROWER TO THE LENDER UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS NOTE OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS, COSTS OF SUIT,
AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES OF FIFTEEN PERCENT (15%) OF THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL SUM AND INTEREST THEN DUE HEREUNDER. BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THIS NOTE, THE LENDER AGREES THAT IN THE EVENT THE LENDER EXERCISES AT ANY TIME ITS RIGHT TO CONFESS JUDGMENT
UNDER THIS NOTE, THE LENDER SHALL USE ITS BEST EFFORTS TO OBTAIN LEGAL COUNSEL WHO WILL CHARGE THE LENDER FOR ITS SERVICES ON AN HOURLY BASIS, AT ITS CUSTOMARY HOURLY RATES AND ONLY FOR THE TIME AND REASONABLE EXPENSES INCURRED. IN NO EVENT SHALL
THE LENDER ENFORCE THE LEGAL FEES PORTION OF A CONFESSED JUDGMENT AWARD FOR AN AMOUNT IN EXCESS OF THE FEES AND EXPENSES ACTUALLY CHARGED TO THE LENDER FOR SERVICES RENDERED BY ITS COUNSEL IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT AND/OR THE
COLLECTION OF SUMS OWED TO THE LENDER. IN THE EVENT THE LENDER RECEIVES, THROUGH EXECUTION UPON A CONFESSED JUDGMENT, PAYMENTS ON ACCOUNT OF ATTORNEYS’ FEES IN EXCESS OF SUCH ACTUAL ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES INCURRED BY THE LENDER,
THEN, AFTER FULL REPAYMENT AND SATISFACTION OF ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS UNDER AND IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE LOAN AGREEMENT AND ALL OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE LENDER SHALL REFUND SUCH EXCESS AMOUNT TO THE BORROWERS. EACH BORROWER HEREBY
RELEASES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL ERRORS AND ALL RIGHTS OF EXEMPTION, APPEAL, STAY OF EXECUTION, INQUISITION, AND OTHER RIGHTS TO WHICH SUCH BORROWER MAY OTHERWISE BE ENTITLED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA OR
OF ANY STATE OR POSSESSION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NOW IN FORCE AND WHICH MAY HEREAFTER BE ENACTED. THE AUTHORITY AND POWER TO APPEAR FOR AND ENTER JUDGMENT AGAINST ANY BORROWER SHALL NOT BE EXHAUSTED BY ONE OR MORE EXERCISES THEREOF OR BY
ANY IMPERFECT 

  

 5 








 
EXERCISE THEREOF AND SHALL NOT BE EXTINGUISHED BY ANY JUDGMENT ENTERED PURSUANT THERETO. SUCH AUTHORITY MAY BE EXERCISED ON ONE OR MORE OCCASIONS OR FROM
TIME TO TIME IN THE SAME OR DIFFERENT JURISDICTIONS AS OFTEN AS THE LENDER SHALL DEEM NECESSARY OR DESIRABLE, FOR ALL OF WHICH THIS NOTE SHALL BE A SUFFICIENT WARRANT. 
  


	 	21.	WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. 

 EACH BORROWER
AND THE LENDER (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF) HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO WHICH SUCH BORROWER AND THE LENDER MAY BE PARTIES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO (A) THIS NOTE OR (B) THE FINANCING DOCUMENTS.
IT IS AGREED AND UNDERSTOOD THAT THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OF ALL CLAIMS AGAINST ALL PARTIES TO SUCH ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING CLAIMS AGAINST PARTIES WHO ARE NOT PARTIES TO THIS NOTE. 
 THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY EACH BORROWER, AND EACH BORROWER HEREBY REPRESENTS THAT NO REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT OR
OPINION HAVE BEEN MADE BY ANY INDIVIDUAL TO INDUCE THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR TO IN ANY WAY MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT. EACH BORROWER FURTHER REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS NOTE AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER
BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL.
